Situation 03. Joe wants to test how fast can SuperMan save him if he jumps of a cliff 180m high. He recorded that after 5 seconds, SuperMan arrives at the cliff and dives to save Joe. SuperMan leaves the cliff with an initial velocity to give him a push to catch Joe, and later on act on a free fall as Joe is. Compute the initial velocity of SuperMan so he can catch Joe before they hit the ground.
